<u>Answer:</u> The process is called as nuclear decay process.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear reaction are defined as the reactions in which nucleus of an atom is involved.

Isotopes under decay process in order to attain stability.

Unstable isotopes known as parent isotopes undergo various decay processes to form stable isotopes known as daughter isotopes.

The various decay processes are:

  • <u>Alpha decay:</u> In this process, alpha particle is released.
  • <u>Beta decay:</u> In this process, beta decay is released.
  • <u>Gamma decay:</u> In this process, gamma decay is released.

Hence, the process is called as nuclear decay process.

Calculate the volume of the gas when the pressure of the gas is 1.60 atm at a temperature of 298 K. There are 160. mol of gas in
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

2445 L

Explanation:

Given:  

Pressure = 1.60 atm

Temperature = 298 K

Volume = ?

n =  160 mol

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 08206 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

1.60 atm × V = 160 mol × 0.08206 L.atm/K.mol × 298 K  

<u>⇒V = 2445.39 L</u>

Answer to four significant digits, Volume = 2445 L

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

kp= 3.1 x 10^(-2)

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to write down the reaction and use the ICE table for pressures:

                                2SO2      +        O2         ⇄              2SO3

Initial                      3.4 atm           1.3 atm                         0 atm

Change                    -2x                    - x                                + 2x

Equilibrium            3.4 - 2x            1.3 -x                          0.52 atm

In order to know the x value:

2x = 0.52

x=(0.52)/2= 0.26

                               2SO2             +          O2              ⇄              2SO3

Equilibrium        3.4 - 0.52                1.3 - 0.26                     0.52 atm

Equilibrium        2.88 atm                 1.04 atm                      0.52 atm

with the partial pressure in the equilibrium, we can obtain Kp.

Kp=\frac{PSO3^2}{PSO2^2 PO2}=\frac{(0.52)^2}{(2.88)^2(1.04)}=0.03135
